HIGHLANDS INNOVATION brings together the work of a social enterprise and a charity to create practical, lasting benefits for people and communities.
We bring together people, skills and resources to tackle real problems — from digital exclusion and electronic waste to the everyday barriers that stop people taking part in work, learning and community life.
Practical change, made together
Our flagship project, ReTech®, collects, repairs and repurposes IT equipment. By keeping technology in use for longer, we reduce waste and help people and organisations access affordable, reliable devices.
We work with local partners, volunteers and supporters to turn ideas into useful projects. Our approach is simple: listen carefully, work openly and focus on what makes a real difference.
A social enterprise and a charity
HIGHLANDS INNOVATION is the shared public name for two separate legal organisations with a common purpose: HIGHLANDS INNOVATION CIC, our social enterprise (Company No. SC868816), and Highlands Innovation SCIO, our Scottish charity (Scottish Charity No. SC055602). Both are rooted in the Highlands, share this website and a registered office in Inverness, and are committed to responsible, people-centred work.
